Psalm 113



1 Praise the LORD! Praise, O servants of the LORD,
praise the name of the LORD!

2 Blessed be the name of the LORD
from this time forth and forevermore!
3 From the rising of the sun to its setting,
the name of the LORD is to be praised!

4 The LORD is high above all nations,
and his glory above the heavens!
5 Who is like the LORD our God,
who is seated on high,
6 who looks far down
on the heavens and the earth?
7 He raises the poor from the dust
and lifts the needy from the ash heap,
8 to make them sit with princes,
with the princes of his people.
9 He gives the barren woman a home,
making her the joyous mother of children.
Praise the LORD!

Job 33:26Then man prays to God, and he accepts him; he sees his face with a shout of joy, and he restores to man his righteousness

Thousands of years ago Job wondered why suffering existed. And learned to trust God to bring forth His plan, His healing. As Job trusted, he healed.

God raises us. He lifts us. He gives.



Psalm 126

 English Standard Version, David Cochran Audio Bible

When the LORD restored the fortunes of Zion,
we were like those who dream.
² Then our mouth was filled with laughter,
and our tongue with shouts of joy;
then they said among the nations,
"The LORD has done great things for them."
³ The LORD has done great things for us;
we are glad.

⁴ Restore our fortunes, O LORD,
like streams in the Negeb!
⁵ Those who sow in tears
shall reap with shouts of joy!
⁶ He who goes out weeping,
bearing the seed for sowing,
shall come home with shouts of joy,
bringing his sheaves with him.

Restoration. Not just thrown out and replaced. To be made new with effort and valued. Something of beauty. What the Lord has in store for those who love Him.

You see things; and you say "Why?" But I dream things that never were; and I say "Why not?"
~ George Bernard Shaw

Psalm 33:18
Behold, the eye of the LORD is on those who fear him, on those who hope in his steadfast love

Psalm 39:7
And now, O Lord, for what do I wait? My hope is in you

Matthew 12:21
and in his name the Gentiles will hope

Never let us sink into despair believing You have left.

Let us hold on to Your Mercies renew daily. And Build with Living Stones. What You See in us. What we will be. What we pray for. Our Prayer You gave, more Heaven upon earth and Your Good Will.

Surround us and uplift us in Jesus Christ. Amen.
